Patient Demographics and Anthropometric Measurements Predict Tibial and Femoral Component Sizing in Total Knee Arthroplasty.

ABSTRACT: Background:Accurate sizing is critical for the overall success of a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study's primary purpose was to investigate the ability to predict the tibial and femoral component size in a single implant system from patient demographics and anthropometric data. A secondary goal was to compare the predicted tibial and femoral component sizes from our statistical model with a previously validated electronic application used to predict the implant size. Methods:A consecutive series of 484 patients undergoing a primary TKA at a single institution was reviewed. Data on height, weight, body mass index, sex, age, and component size were collected. A proportional odds model was developed to predict tibial and femoral component sizes. The relationship between the proportional odds model predictions was also compared with the component sizes determined by the Arthroplasty Size Predictor electronic application. Results:Weight, height, and sex predicted the implanted component size with an accuracy of 54.0% (n = 247/484) for the tibia and 51.1% (n = 231/484) for the femur. The accuracy improved to 94.4% (n = 457/484) for the tibia and 93.4% (n = 452/484) for the femur within ±1 component size. Our data are highly correlated to the Arthroplasty Size Predictor for the predicted tibial component size (? = 0.91, P < .001) and femoral component size (? = 0.89, P < .001). Conclusions:Our novel templating model may improve operative efficiency for a single TKA system. Our findings have a high concordance with a widely available electronic application used to predict implant sizes for a variety of TKA systems.

Project description:PURPOSE:During total knee arthroplasty, few rotating reference axes can be reliably used after tibial resection. We speculated that a line that passes through the lateral edge of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) at its tibial attachment after resection and the most prominent point of the tibial tubercle [after-tibial resection (ATR) line] will provide a good reference axis. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the association between ATR and Akagi's lines. MATERIALS AND METHODS:In this case-control simulation study, we retrospectively evaluated 38 patients with varus knee and 28 patients with valgus knee. We defined the reference cutting plane as 10 mm distal from the lateral articular surface of the tibia in varus group and as 7 mm distal from the medial articular surface in the valgus group. We measured angles between Akagi's line and the ATR line (ATR line angle) as well as between Akagi's line and 1/3 Akagi's line (1/3 Akagi's line angle), which passes through the midpoint of PCL and the medial third of the patellar tendon. We used paired t-tests to determine the significance of differences between these angles, with p < 0.05 indicating statistical significance. Intra- and interclass correlation coefficients for the reproducibility of 1/3 Akagi's line angle and ATR line angle were analyzed by two surgeons. RESULTS:We found that 1/3 Akagi's line angle was 10.2° ± 1.3° in the varus group and 10.9° ± 1.3° in the valgus group (p = 0.017). The ATR line was positioned externally compared with Akagi's line in all patients. Mean ATR line angles at 0°, 3° and 7° posterior slopes were 6.1° ± 1.9°, 5.8° ± 2.0° and 6.0° ± 1.7° in the varus group and 6.3° ± 2.3°, 6.2° ± 2.3° and 5.4° ± 2.1° in the valgus group, respectively. There were no significant differences in the ATR line angle between the varus and valgus groups. (p = 0.34-0.67) Intra- and interclass correlation coefficients for the reproducibility of 1/3 Akagi's line angle were 0.936 and 0.986 and those for the reproducibility of ATR line angle were 0.811 and 0.839. CONCLUSIONS:The ATR line was positioned between Akagi's line and 1/3 Akagi's line in all patients and was a valid option for evaluating rotational tibial alignment after tibial resection.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of this study is to investigate the prognostic value of tibial component coverage (over-hang and under-hang) and the alignment of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) components 1 week after surgery. We select patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) (the Knee Society score (KSS score) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index-pain score (WOMAC pain score)) and tibial bone resorption (TBR) 2 years after surgery as the end points.MethodsThe study retrospectively analyzed 109 patients undergoing TKA (fixed-bearing prosthesis with asymmetrical tibial tray) from January 2014 to December 2017 in Huashan Hospital. By using standard long-leg X-rays, anteroposterior (AP) and lateral X-rays of the knee, tibial component coverage (under-hang or over-hang), AP tibial-femoral anatomical angle (AP-TFA), AP femoral angle (AP-FA), AP tibial angle (AP-TA), and lateral tibial angle (L-TA) were measured at 1 week after surgery, while TBR was measured through postoperative 1-week and 2-year AP and lateral radiographs of the knee on three sides (medial side, lateral side on AP radiograph, and anterior side on lateral radiograph). The Pearson correlation analysis, simple linear regression, multiple linear regression, the Student's t test, and one-way ANOVA together with Tukey's post hoc test (or Games-Howell post hoc test) were used in the analyses.ResultsTibial under-hang was more likely to appear in our patients following TKA (42%, medially, 39%, laterally, and 25%, anteriorly). In multivariate linear regression analysis of TBR, tibial under-hang (negative value) 1 week after surgery was positively correlated with TBR 2 years later on the medial (p = 0.003) and lateral (p = 0.026) side. Tibial over-hang (positive value) 1 week after surgery on the medial side was found negatively related with KSS score (p = 0.004) and positively related with WOMAC pain score (p = 0.036) 2 years later in multivariate linear regression analysis of PROMS. Both scores were better in the anatomically sized group than in the mild over-hang group (or severe over-hang) (p < 0.001). However, no significant relationship was found between the alignment of TKA components at 1 week after surgery and the end points (TBR and PROMS) 2 years later.ConclusionUnder-hang of the tibial component on both the medial and lateral sides can increase the risk of TBR 2 years later. Over-hang of tibial component on the medial side decreases the PROMS (KSS score and WOMAC pain score) 2 years later. An appropriate size of tibial component during TKA is extremely important for patient's prognosis, while the alignment of components might not be as important.
